Yogurt is an essential drink during Ramadan, offering multiple benefits to ease the effects of long fasting hours, improve digestion after Iftar, and sustain energy during the day at Suhoor.
Benefits after Iftar:
-
Rich in probiotics that balance gut bacteria, improving digestion and reducing bloating or stomach discomfort after heavy meals.
-
Soothes the stomach after long fasting hours and restores activity without strain.
-
Reduces acidity caused by fried or spicy foods, preparing the stomach for the rest of the meal.
Benefits at Suhoor:
-
High water content supports hydration throughout the fasting day.
-
Provides protein and calcium, helping maintain satiety longer and reduce mid-day hunger.
-
Supports slow digestion and stabilizes energy levels during fasting.
-
Boosts immunity with beneficial bacteria and essential vitamins, particularly important with altered sleep and meal schedules in Ramadan.
Experts recommend choosing unsweetened natural yogurt, consuming it in moderation within a balanced diet including vegetables, healthy proteins, and adequate water intake.
